About this wood

Today Storeton is a tranquil oasis in an urban landscape - complete with butterflies, birds and even dinosaur footprints! The fossilised prints are believed to belong to a raptor-like dinosaur which was named after the location, Cheirotherium storeonia. Centuries old, they only came to light in the 1920’s and are now housed in Liverpool Museum and the British Museum.
